I am the idiot, but you are the one posting a thread on knife love????
Yeah okay. You're right.
+1 this is sad
You're both bellends.
Some people enjoy cooking and enjoy using a quality, well made tool to get the job done.
You know, a bit like some of the people on this forum who enjoy riding a quality bicycle that feels good to ride and does its job for a long time.
Liking a knife is no less credible than liking a bike.

dylan, those 'steels' work by magnetism if im not mistaken.
the way it works is by creating a burr of metal by taking the knife away from the steel then re working the burr into the working edge by bringing the knife into the steel.
i can shave with my kitchen knives sharpening this way.
the magnet is to help hold the knife in place as far as i know. it on itself wont sharpen a knife

I used to think honing steels worked purely by burring, and perhaps the magnetism was to hold the metal dust or something.
But I recently bought a new honing steel and it was completely smooth, I thought it was a factory defect, but I tried it and it worked great. So I concluded it must be the magnetism aligning the sharpened edge.

You may have noted, that this is LONDONfgss, and therefore Londoners like me, are aware that knives have other uses here in this city, than culinary work.
Hospitals are full of people who are the victims of knife lovers. Knife lovers are not only chefs. That part, is the shame.
A love of a dangerous weapon is one thing, but as a tool of work is another. Society reacts with chagrin at the true effect of knives here. THAT is why some, like me, find the knife love, sad.

PS. Liking a knife is no less credible than liking a bike. This is lunatic. People don't easily pick up a bike, with the aim of killing another person.

yarrr, this knives can end up doing this:

You are such a twat.
Who mentioned anything about killing people, other than you?
Objects that aren't specifically designed to be weapons only become weapons when they are used as such. A chef's knife isn't designed to be a fucking weapon, IT'S A FUCKING TOOL FOR CUTTING FOOD YOU IDIOT.

Oh by the way, dont think youre so special just because you live in London. People get stabbed (and plenty of other non-stabby stuff goes on) outside London, dickhead.

Great thread.
Fuck off.Yeah you're right.
BAN ALL KNIVES.
Knives should be hated because only murderers use them.
We should also ban cars because sometimes people intentionally use them to kill other people.
We should also ban and hate everything that could be used to kill someone. For example salt, water (hot or cold), pillows, drinking glasses and so on. in fact fuck it BAN EVERYTHING

+1 to chinese choppers, blades are actually very soft, but it doesn't matter, there's so much metal there, just keep sharpening away.....
Some jobs require a dull knife, so I keep a dull 12" cooks knife and a dull chinese chopper alongside my sharp ones.....
....when i was a chef, I liked the way a chinese chopper gets blunt quickly, makes it really versatile...hacking away at a duck cracass blunts it pretty quick....and a dull blade is what you want for hacking away at a duck carcass....chopping onions next? a few strokes on the steel and the soft blade is sharp again in no time.....no fafffing around with stones and "magnets"
That magnet thing sounds like tosh to me.....you'd need a magnet bigger than a kitchen to have that effect wouldn't you? but I 'm willing to be swayed if you point me to the relevant wikipedia article.

and wait for the quality line at the end....
'i'm always right when i'm with you dundee'

Yeah you're right.

YOU IDIOT.pastry lover, I've been on this forum for a while now, but have always tried to be as polite as possible to others, even when I am extremely irked. You don't know me, so calling me a twat and an idiot is a bit much.
I can get aggressive, but thats not normally necessary in my life. I suggest you take a bit of a calmer tone, and back down. No need to get personal. I haven't.

GA2G - i think you should get personal, it's good fun and this really is a stupid thread. except for paul hogan film that is.

I don't, and won't, ignore anyone on this forum.
I just feel that forum's are a coming together of all sorts of people, so ignoring is an odd way of managing differences.
That said, I'm fairly confident that I am the next most ignored person, after Paul-Michel.
I won't put Platini on ignore, nor anyone else.
